Jean Lang (1857-1932) was a writer and folklorist. The main fields of her interests were ancient mythology and legends, their origins and changing over time. A Book of Myths (1914) is one of the most know works of Jeanie Lang, as well as Stories of the Border Marches (1916). Clytie is a short folk story, included in A Book of Myths. "Sunflowers" is the name by which we know those flamboyant blossoms which somehow fail so wholly to suggest the story of Clytie, was a water-nymph, a timid, gentle being that frequented lonely streams, whose destruction came from a faithful, unrequited love. Because came a day when, into the dark pool by which she sat, Apollo the Conqueror looked down.
